And His love for the doers of good, from mercy and benevolence and abundant reward. For the doers of good, the Quran says: And our master, Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, is the head of the doers of good and their foundation. He worshipped his Lord best and was most benevolent to His creation. This is established in some of the hadiths and is clear and evident. And God is the one who guides to remembrance of the doers of good.
The meaning is that the prayer of the doers of good, and the indication of what God has enjoined upon Himself towards His servants, is what He promised His servants for praying for the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, from elevation and high rank. And whoever prays for the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, is among the doers of good. Or it means that whoever prays for the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, has done good, and God has promised the doer of good. The indication is of the promise to the one who prays, with the promise of prayer, or the general promise of reward for doing good. And it is not far-fetched. And God knows best.
"O God, bless him" means increase his elevation and rank. And rank is one of the degrees, which are levels of standing. And it is said "a station," so he is not surpassed in it. And this is the apparent meaning. And it is possible that the intention is the first, and his reading refers to his closeness to God, or his permanence, or his companionship with Him. And "make his scale heavy" means to make it heavy with good deeds. And "make his decree manifest" means to make his decree more apparent and exalted. And "grant him victory" means victory over all affairs. And "increase his reward" means to make it great and abundant. And "illuminate his face" means to make it radiant. For radiance is greater than light. And God Almighty is the one who made the sun radiant and the moon a source of light. And the meaning is: increase its light and radiance. And what is with the scholars is that among the lights, some are a primary light, which is inherent in the body from its essence, like the light of the sun. And some are a secondary light, which is acquired by the body from its interaction with the air, like the light reflected on the earth from the moon. And the primary light is called "nour" (light) and the secondary light is called "diya'" (radiance). And the meaning is: make his light a widespread radiance, and the intention is the abundance of that.
